Marcus Baebius Tamphilus

Marcus Baebius Tamphilus, (Marcus) Baebius (Tamphilus)

Marcus Baebius Tamphilus, tribune of the plebs in 103 BC, attempted to veto the agrarian law of his colleague, Saturninus, who had proposed that veterans should be granted parcels of land in the province of Africa. Baebius was stoned and forced to flee. He may be the same Marcus Baebius who was put to death by Marius in 87 BC.
